Bounty (stylized as bounty) is the first audiovisual album produced by the electronic music project iamamiwhoami, pseudonym of Swedish singer-songwriter Jonna Lee. Originally produced and released as a series of singles throughout 2010 and 2011, it was later released as an album on 3 June 2013 on iamamiwhoami's label To whom it may concern, distributed by Cooperative Music, a group of independent labels. The first music video of bounty titled "b" was released on 14 March 2010 on iamamiwhoami's YouTube channel. After which followed "o", "u-1", "u-2", "n", "t" and "y". Digital singles are released shortly after each music video is uploaded to YouTube. The titles collectively formed the word "bounty". While it was assumed that these songs solely consisted of bounty's track list, in 2011 two more singles and music videos, "; john" and "clump" were released and were not confirmed as belonging to Bounty until June 2012 when iamamiwhoami's YouTube channel grouped them into a playlist named bounty along with the previous tracks mentioned.
On 4 December 2012, iamamiwhoami's label website To whom it may concern. was updated with a note on the front page which stated "20130603 – iamamiwhoami; bounty", forecasting a physical release of the bounty series. This was confirmed on the very next day when the Release section of the website displayed Bounty's album cover art, along with its track list.
Sasha Geffen from Consequence of Sound, Jon Clark from Drowned in Sound, AllMusic, musicOMH and This Is Fake DIY reviewed the album generally positive.
As with kin, the group embarked upon a worldwide tour for the album, including their first North American performances.
Including digital, CD+DVD and LP+DVD formats.
